Ingredients
  

  • 4 chicken thighs with both skin and bone
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 1 14.5 oz can diced tomatoes

Instructions
 

  • Put chicken, skin side down, in a cold pan over medium heat. Let cook for 10-15 minutes, until the pan heats, the skin starts to brown, and fat renders out.
  • Turn the meat over. Pour off most of the chicken fat, leaving some to grease the pan. Add the onion and stir to coat with fat. Let cook another 5 minutes.
  • Add tomatoes. Bring to a simmer, cover and let simmer for 15 minutes.
  • Turn the chicken over. Simmer another 10-15 minutes, until the meat is done. (This will vary by the size of the pieces.)
